Wow, best morning show in Boston.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Billy and Lisa in the morning. It's just a great
start to my day on kids.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Hey, good morning guys, and is Justin? What's up? What
are you doing? Welcome to the show. Hope everything is
good in your world. I'm doing just fine. It's always
an honor to be on the radio in my hometown Boston.
I never take it for granted. So we have a
pack show today, lots to get to. I was thinking
this morning about the time that our girl Winnie came
(00:27):
to work a little something something going on on her skin.
Let's relive that when.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
He showed up today with a flesh eating disease.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
And Justin, I had another medical question before we get
to talkbacks. A medical question for you, because you know
you've experienced a lot in life.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
And the question I have for you is, how does
the clap show itself?
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Well, I've never had the clap Yeah, okay, so I'm
not sure. Oh okay, I do know because I know
people that have had it that you don't always know
that you have it.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Ah see that. Yeah, so right now it's up for grabs.
We don't know exactly what.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
When he said, she was clearly misdiagnosed by her doctor yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
So now you're going to a new one today.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I'm going, Yes, I'm going to atologist.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
And I can't be certain that it's not contagious. So
I'm sitting across the I have had it for months,
doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Right now he can see it.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
The thing is, I've worn this outfit twenty times since
i've had it.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Yeah, and I always assumed.
Speaker 6 (01:28):
I really did.
Speaker 7 (01:30):
I'm not even say it does resemble I wish.
Speaker 5 (01:34):
It was a Hickey because this is uncomfortable, Donovan.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I'm not even kidding, because I've spotted these marks, these
blotches on her upper breast before, and I didn't say
anything because I assumed it was from the night.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Before and they were Hickey.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Well, she has come in with Hickey's on her neck.
I did, honest.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Okay, maybe one time.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Both sides of your neck.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
And don't forget. They said the pan would last a
week maybe two. So how do we know what this is?
Speaker 3 (02:04):
So justin you have some talkbacks.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Well, it's kind of like when you look up something
that's wrong on web MD. Yeah, totally, you see what
it possibly could be. That's what it's like on the
talkback Mafia today.
Speaker 8 (02:15):
Wait, if it's what I had, I got it from surfing,
like some fungal thing in my suit, and it would
I had it for like over a year just because
I never really did too much about it. Doctions always
gave me this lotion, this shampoo thing, but I think
it's tiny versa color. And I finally saw a dermatologist
and he gave me some heavy duty shampoo and a
(02:37):
heavy duty yeast infection pill that I had to eat
for like a month, but it went away.
Speaker 9 (02:43):
Yeah, you have like.
Speaker 7 (02:44):
A topical or like a dermata, like a yeast infection
on your skin or everywhere I could.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
Oh my god, well the thing is now when it's
like making up things.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
As well, let's not rule out there's other things that
could be. Let's not jump the gun.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Das Morning Team.
Speaker 10 (03:01):
Just heard about Winnie's heat rash thing. My mom also
has the same thing.
Speaker 11 (03:09):
She thought it was heat.
Speaker 10 (03:10):
Rash at first, and then she ended up going to
a specific type of doctor and they ended up telling
her that she has a circulation problem, basically that the
blood isn't traveling up back to your heart fast enough,
so maybe check on that.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
When he tell then die. That's not how I die.
Cuckoo Nana that lives downstairs, my wife's grandmother. She lives
downstairs with me. She has circulation problems and her leg
and she had surgery and it worked, which is great,
but they were to hack off her. Woa, You're gonna
very serious.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
And by the way, I'm not even kidding.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
In the last two minutes, Lisa Dunnevan's been scratching.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Yeah, I.
Speaker 7 (03:48):
Know, but I think it's just because of what we're
talking about.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
You're sitting too close to her. Oh my god, that's
why I'm over here in another zip.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Code, sat my scalp or it could be what we think.
What I think is the sweat.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Hi, it's talkback, Skippy. When I was younger, I had
a severe rash all over my entire body and the
doctor told me I was allergic.
Speaker 12 (04:11):
To my own sweat and he wanted to remove my
sweat glands and the problem disappeared.
Speaker 7 (04:23):
Wow, justin You're right like that was like going down
like a rabbit hole of WebMD.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
And there's so many more there coming. I'm watching them.
Just just wild.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
Yeah, I just I'm going to lose your leg.
Speaker 7 (04:36):
You're gonna have to remove your sweat glands. I've got
a yeast infection all over your body.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yeah, waiting Billy before they hack it off. If it
gets to that point, it ganggreen comes. Oh yeah, oh
and that smells. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (04:50):
My mother had to have her leg cut off because
of that. Hold on, yeah, my great grandmother, hold on.
She was in a wheelchair, the poor thing. I felt
so bad. When I was little, we would.
Speaker 9 (05:02):
Have to go visit her.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
She was gangrenous.
Speaker 9 (05:04):
She had a leg issue.
Speaker 7 (05:05):
I think, like, you're like your grandmother, right, justin right
she look yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Yeah. So when you have poor circulation, the blood can't
get to that part of the body and it basically dies.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
It causes poor circulation. I'm a young, healthy person that moves.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
You're not a young healthy person because you're raging with blotches.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Listen, if I have to have some rations on my
skin to be like physically internally healthy, I don't care
because I'm not stopping to work out.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
I'm not like I'm not I want.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
To eat gluten.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
Okay, So if I have to scratch my way through life, fine,
so be it. Because I'm not I'm not not.
Speaker 9 (05:42):
Sweating and I want to take out shot shower.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
We'll start by removing the swete plants appointment.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Okay, that would be fair.
Speaker 5 (05:51):

Speaker 4 (07:54):
How did you land in the dunkin spot with Matt
Damon and Casey Affleck.
Speaker 14 (07:58):
You want me to tell the story, long story short,
Apple TV reached out to us. We do a lot
of brand work in the city on social media, so
they wanted some help promote in the movie The Instigators
in Boston, so we kind of led the promotion. We
helped host the movie premiere in front of like two
hundred plus people, So we had to do like a
five to ten minute comedy set in front of two
(08:20):
hundred plus people and bring out Mac Damon and Casey.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
So we got to meet Matt and Casey at the
movie premiere.
Speaker 14 (08:25):
Great guys, very uh you know, it's it's it's crazy
watching them growing up and then meeting them.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
You know, they're kind they're kind of the same guys honestly.
Speaker 14 (08:33):
But you know, we did our comedy set and they
were like, hey, why don't we have these guys jump
in a commercial we're doing on the Sunday. It was
it was on a Friday. They were shooting on a Sunday,
and then one thing led to another and Doug Lyman,
the director, wanted us in, and Apple Team hit us
up and was like, hey, we have a cool opportunity
if you guys want to jump in, And that's basically
how it happened.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
So let me get this straight.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
It was one two years ago the first time you
guys came in studio I believe.
Speaker 14 (08:57):
So, yeah, that was about two years ago now, and
you know we've been doing this. I mean I've been
doing this three years full time now going on. So
Prejudo Poppy.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
How long have you been.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Doing two years?
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Man?
Speaker 13 (09:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (09:07):
With the post Office?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Yeah, almost two years ago.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Now were you born Prejudo Poppy or.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
I think you're gonna legally change you name it.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I think I'm gonna legally change it. First things first,
how do people find you on social?
Speaker 14 (09:22):
You can find me at Tommy Garino East Prejudo Poppy,
the Perjudo Poppy. And then we have a media company
together called It's Content, so you can find that on YouTube, Instagram,
TikTok anywhere.
Speaker 6 (09:33):
But yeah, that's where we post all of stuff.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
And you guys have a huge following. How did you
get that? How do you come up with the ideas
you put on social?
Speaker 14 (09:41):
I mean, honestly grown up in East Boston with my
crazy Italian family. That's now I'm still live in the
Triple Decker in East Boston. My grandmother bought it in
nineteen sixty five for thirty thousand dollars and now it's
worth a lot more than that. But my family still
comes there all the time. So that's where I got
my initial inspiration. So yeah, that's where we.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
Get a lot of it.
Speaker 14 (09:59):
And then like movies and stuff growing up, like you know,
I love comedy movies, the Boston movies, Adam sand the movies. Sure,
just that's really where I take most of the inspo.
I don't know if you have a.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Well, then what point did you guys get together?
Speaker 6 (10:11):
Summer camp?
Speaker 4 (10:12):
Oh yeah, I have a a couple of guys from
went to summer camp.
Speaker 14 (10:17):
Police police Academy. Yeah, yeah, we we basically we were
like five years old. We met in the summer camp
our parents put us in. The police would put on
like a summer camp for the kids in East Boston.
So that's where we met. And then we just kind
of grew up playing little together at street hockey, and
then we went to high school together and graduated together
from East Boston High and then one thing led to another.
(10:39):
We just became, you know, good friends, and the social
media stuff brought us closer.
Speaker 6 (10:43):
And now with you know, two guys from Easte trying
to make it big.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
But you also ended up in the Patriots documentary.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Yeah what two years ago?
Speaker 14 (10:59):
Oh yeah, like a year and a half because they
recorded that interview with us about a year before the documentary,
and yeah, I know, it just basically the same thing.
Someone reached out from us from the documentary team and
they were like, hey, we want to interview local Patriots
fans and you guys popped up on our radar.
Speaker 6 (11:12):
Do you want to go in?
Speaker 14 (11:13):
And that was a twenty five minute interview and they
gave me three seconds. But I was after Robert Kraft,
So yeah, I at that.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
I actually got cut. Wait a minute, you were cut
from it?
Speaker 12 (11:25):
I was cut, Yeah, I did. We both did about
a half an hour each. And but you were in
like the first what ten minutes?
Speaker 14 (11:31):
I was in the first episode like the first ten minutes,
so everyone saw my face.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
It was a really good series.
Speaker 6 (11:36):
Yeah, it was good.
Speaker 14 (11:37):
I mean a lot of people kind of gave it
negative feedback because it was like a well a hit
piece on Belichick, which I do get, but uh, I
think it was well put together though.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You know, but now you're really really close friends with
Mark Wahlberg. I mean, you're always on his private jet.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I almost said.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
You've never been on the private jet.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Never been on the private Although I have a cool
Mark Wahlberg story.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Jenny Johnson and I are coming out with the cookbook
in the month or so, and he agreed to do
the forward for the book, so that he's such a
good guy.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
But how did your relationship with Mark Wahlberg start?
Speaker 14 (12:12):
I mean, to keep it short, We went to his
uh Fletcher's little tasting at Moxie's and Seaport for almost
a year ago now, and yeah.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
I mean we got there.
Speaker 14 (12:23):
We were getting a shot at the bar and Mak
was coming up to give a little speech in front everyone,
and he kind of gave me a double take, and
he walked over and he was like, Hey, I'm a
big fan of you guys.
Speaker 6 (12:32):
I love what you do.
Speaker 14 (12:33):
So being from East Boston watching his movies growing up,
I mean, that's a dream coming Like I could have
just you know, if everything ended right there, that's all.
Speaker 6 (12:40):
I needed shoot him.
Speaker 14 (12:41):
Then we kind of just kept in touch with him
and saw him a couple of the times he was
shooting a movie and he was like, Hey, I'm coming
back in May, if you guys want to come out
to my restaurant opening.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
You guys are more than welcome. So we said we're
jumping on this.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
He flew you to Los Angeles.
Speaker 14 (12:56):
No, no, we paid, We paid for the take for
that ticket. But he's did say, you know, come to
LA and then we'll fly back to Vegas. So you know,
we're like whatever that means. I don't know if we
were gonna get to his jet, he's gonna put us
in an economy.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 14 (13:10):
Yeah, it was just I mean, we just we went
and mock. You know, we spent good time with him.
He got to know us, give us some advice, and
he was like, hey, we're gonna go to Vegas. Let's
go on my plane. And he brought us to his plane.
We went on the Wallburger Jet, and then.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
A few weeks later we did it again. So we
did it twice in June. Yeah, I never to the West.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Coast two months ago. Now I've been three times.
Speaker 12 (13:32):
We always talk about it too, like when we started
first making videos, because we always we like to speak
things into existence, and like, I wonder who who we're
gonna be with on our first private jet.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
I gotta know, does he have a gym on the jet.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
He might have a couple of dumbells in the I
don't know.
Speaker 14 (13:48):
Yeah, but now he got the he got the Wallburgers
on the jet though I know.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
That from This Planet Fitness Kids One Away Studios. We
we're back with a Billy and Lisa in the Morning
on HIT.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Welcome back to the Really Lisa Show.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
It is a Thursday morning.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Justin you got an interesting talk back.
Speaker 15 (14:06):
So I went to a wedding this weekend and we
were talking about all the crazy kiss want to wait
stories from last week and I was told that at
someone's wedding, they ordered a lobster clam bake and everyone
ordered either lobster steak, and this person ordered a steak
and then they ordered a second lobster for themselves. They
(14:27):
paid for it, which was great, But I just don't
know that really is protocol if anyone's ever had that
at a wedding where someone orders another meal.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
Why do crazy things always happen at weddings?
Speaker 7 (14:38):
But I think weddings usually it's pre paid, right, I
mean they probably have some extra dinners in the back
just for like people that show up or did an RSVP.
Speaker 9 (14:47):
But how would this person pay for it?
Speaker 3 (14:49):
What do they want?
Speaker 4 (14:50):
The surf and turf. It wasn't enough that you can
have either lobster or steak. They wanted the whole surfing day.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Theyarah greedy.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Okay, pay for it. What do you do now? Break
out a credit card? The person working the function doesn't
know what to.
Speaker 9 (15:03):
Do right, It's so awkward.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
I gotta say, this is a new one. When it
comes to weddings, we always talk about that. But I
would do this.
Speaker 9 (15:10):
Oh gosh, wait your second meal?
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Oh yeah, if it's a cheat day. No, this is
happening before. But I didn't know you could buy another mail. Yeah,
I'll eat the mail at a wedding and I'm still hungry,
and then I gorge myself on the dessert because I'm
still hungry from the dinner. So I would order a
second one if I didn't know it was an option.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
I didn't know either.
Speaker 9 (15:27):
I really don't think it is. I really don't.
Speaker 7 (15:30):
I think that if you justin, if you asked the server,
they would probably be like, let me go in the
back and let me just see if there's some extras,
and you would probably just be given one for free.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
And you have to know that that server and everybody
else working there that day is talking about you.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
I'm enjoying mistake.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
You're going to pay out a pocket. Soone's wedding.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
If I walk into the kitchen, say, you're not going
to believe this one. This idiot out there wants a
second meal.
Speaker 7 (15:57):
Yeah, I'm with you, though, justin. I actually of wedding food,
I do.
Speaker 9 (16:02):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
It's always chicken.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
No, no, I will say my sister's wedding, I had.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
The best flagon.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
It was so good, always so good, so good short rib.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
That's a popular one. Some fish.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Yeah, I actually sometimes they have really good buffet food
if it's done right.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Like you know, you've been.

to that wedding. Yeah, open buffet, honey, you going back up.

Speaker 4 (17:53):
So there's a new birthday present trend going on out there,
and it was brought to our attention last night by
Kylie Kelsey.
Speaker 9 (18:00):
Right exactly on her Not Gonna Lie podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Well, the controversy is that there's a new trend where
when you go to a child's birthday party, you not
only have to bring a gift for the birthday child,
but their siblings as well. Yeah, okay, right, Well, the
siblings all get a presence so they don't feel bad.
Speaker 6 (18:16):
It reduces your birthday.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
It's not their birthday, it's your birthday.
Speaker 17 (18:21):
And also I think it teaches them to a degree
that just because someone's getting presents doesn't mean you get presents.
Speaker 9 (18:28):
It feels very participation trophy esque. It does.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
It's setting up unreasonable expectations.
Speaker 9 (18:35):
Oh yeah, and it's also like, you.
Speaker 7 (18:38):
Know, if you're worried about your child sibling, their feelings
getting hurt because they're not getting a gift, right, Like,
that's troubling. Life is about you know, your feeling is
getting hurt sometimes, right.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Yeah, that's the big character builder, honestly, exactly, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
I've always affectionately called it the precious society.
Speaker 18 (19:00):
It is.
Speaker 7 (19:00):
I am so against this trend, like against.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I want to hear from from a family that does
this right, right?
Speaker 3 (19:07):
And what and why told you?
Speaker 9 (19:09):
And why do they do it?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Oh we're not?
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Yeah, well nice.
Speaker 7 (19:13):
Yeah, I'm about learning from people, so I would love
to hear why they think it's a good idea obviously,
but it feels very.
Speaker 19 (19:21):
Much along the same lines of the woman who no colors,
no noises, no fun allowed. It's I'm sorry that you
can't teach your child how to regulate themselves if things
aren't going their way, figure it out.
Speaker 9 (19:36):
Yeah, it's so true.
Speaker 4 (19:37):
It's the feelings people, you know. It's like everybody gets
a trophy. I remember there was a time the feelings
the society would say, you can't cheer the other team
because that means you're cheering against the other team. What
like at a little league game, what are you doing?
You can't cheer for them. But if the kid just
hit a home run, Yeah, but you can't cheer.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Against the other team.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
But I think it goes back to like celebrating someone's
birthday and that's their special day.
Speaker 9 (20:02):
Let them have that.
Speaker 19 (20:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (20:03):
Right, it's only one.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Day a year, right, right, it's not the siblings birthday.
They have their own birth exactly. When that day comes,
the celebration happens.
Speaker 9 (20:11):
Right, and it's a special time.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 17 (20:12):
Okay, So I love my sister and maybe this makes
me petty, but growing up, if she got a present
on my.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Birthday, I would be pissed.
Speaker 17 (20:24):
You know what, if I got a present on her birthday,
so would she.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
This is ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (20:30):
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Yeah, it's so true. Who came up with this? Have
we heard from the person who actually invented?
Speaker 9 (20:37):
Where is this trend coming out of?
Speaker 5 (20:38):
It's like that soft parenting stuff which don't give me stuck.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Well, it not only came from a Karen. I think
the Karen. It came from lives on Karen Street.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
They must have, you know, a decent amount of financial
money which some people don't have that they can only
afford their one the kid's birthdays to get them something
so true, you know what I mean, and then to
put that pressure on them and they have two or three,
three kids, they got to get three gifts and they
can only really afford one nice gift.
Speaker 9 (21:07):
And then you're setting up year after year after year.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Yeah, it's just another gift, another this.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
We don't need a gift every day.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Just bought a sibling a present.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
See okay, did Olivia Olivia and nahant yep Olivia.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Return the gift, Get in your car and.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Wait outside the store till it opens and give the
big gift back, or just put the one kid who's
having a birthday put his name or her name on
both gifts.
Speaker 20 (21:33):
I mean, really, so Nahan is so small and I
have two kids and the girl whose birthday party it
was her little sisters in my son's class.
Speaker 9 (21:46):
Yeah, but it's not her birthday.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
It doesn't matter, it's still not her birthday.
Speaker 20 (21:50):
Well, this is the first time that I did it.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
No, take it back.
Speaker 20 (21:54):
I honestly just did it because I know how my
son would act. But the thing that I hate the
most is when people have their child open presence when
everyone's there.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
Well, it's a birthday party and everybody's celebrating a child.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
We can't celebrate a birthday now, Olivia.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
I'm coming in a hat to straighten this out, could you?
Speaker 21 (22:18):
Well?
Speaker 5 (22:18):
I actually, Elia, you're kind of confusing me because on
one annually, I don't want to see you open your present,
but then you're buying a sibling a present has nothing
to do with it.
Speaker 7 (22:27):
I know.
Speaker 20 (22:27):
I'm like, I'm a people pleaser. That was like, but
I really like the pin.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
If it seems like we're yelling at you, were not.
We're not teaching.
Speaker 9 (22:36):
I'm learning from Olivia.
Speaker 7 (22:37):
I want to know, Olivia, what do you think about
the the gift bags that you have to get give
every kid at a birthday party?
Speaker 3 (22:43):
To No, she's very She's a walking contradiction that's a
new thing too.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
The kid can't open the birthday gifts because the other
kids will get upset that.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
It's like nobody you can't give you got to give
everybody a trophy. If one person gets their troup, I just.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Think it's a time was I don't watch it.
Speaker 9 (23:02):
Yeah, I have to say I've done both.
Speaker 7 (23:03):
We've done gift opening and we've done we take the
gifts home and we make sure the kids write thank
you notes.
Speaker 9 (23:09):
That's my big thing. That's right, Lisa to right, all
my kids wrote thank you not yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Yeah, well I'm taking notes for Billy's birthday.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
Attention if you're here.
Speaker 18 (23:17):
For Phil's birthday party, t nic Area Phil Birthday Party.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
It's kiss one aways and we're back with Billy and
Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Okay, So apparently there is a new birthday president trend
out there. There are some parents that believe if they're
celebrating the birthday for one child in the house, every
child in the house should also get a present on
that birthday. Kylie Kelsey on her podcast yesterday came out
dead set against it.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
And now it's a big debate. Do you or don't you?
Speaker 4 (23:46):
The phones are going crazy the talkbacks are pouring in.
Let's start with Amanda from Fall River. Boy, I just
reversed the accent. Amanda from Fall River, good.
Speaker 9 (23:58):
Morning, good morning, Okay, Amanda, what do.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
You think, Amanda?
Speaker 21 (24:04):
I hate it.
Speaker 11 (24:05):
I absolutely hate it. And my husband's aunt has been
doing it for my kids since they were babies, and
I can't say anything to stop it. And they're getting
older now and it's starting to affect my younger one
where he expects it from my side of the family
and they're like, why are we giving you a gift?
It's your sister's birthday, And it's like it's in his
(24:26):
head now that that's the expectation. And I don't know
how to reverse it or stop it. And I've tried
talking to my husband's aunt and she's like, well, nope,
this is what we're going to do.
Speaker 9 (24:36):
And I'm like, oh, you're really stuck.
Speaker 22 (24:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
Opens up another perspective when they do it, why can't
we do it?
Speaker 7 (24:43):
Just see how the parent doesn't want it, but an
extended relative does.
Speaker 9 (24:47):
Yeah, that's sticky.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah, the extended relative should never have a set now
never you know, that's why they're the extended Anyway, thank you,
Amanda for calling Let's go to haverl carry your up next.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
What do you think yes or no?
Speaker 21 (25:00):
Definitely no, And I will say I'm gonna I'm in
a string situation. By the way, I love you, guys.
I just wanted to say that I love that you
brought this topic up. I say, I'm a I'm a
generation removed. So I had my children. I started having
a family at forty So I had my son at
(25:22):
forty five. So I go to parties now, and I'm
a good ten or fifteen years older probably than any
other parent there. So basically the way I was parented
literally looks nothing like the way I'm now trying to
parent my own kids and navigate this landscape. So very interesting.
(25:44):
The same thing as Amanda, sweet aunt from the family
started bringing. So when it was my darter's birthday, she
turned nine, they're bringing a gift for my son who's four,
and it's Kara and now.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
And by the way, an absolute.
Speaker 21 (26:01):
Terror, an absolute terror. I love him to pieces. So
now we went to a party last week his little
buddy and he was like, well, I'm going to get
a gift too. You have to get me a gift too.
So now it's the confusion now.
Speaker 7 (26:18):
It's yeah, it's setting up the expectation.
Speaker 21 (26:21):
And of course my expectation is absolutely not. It's her
special day, and when it's your special day, you'll get
a gift And so the social pressure is now someone
else is bringing the gifts, so you feel bad too.
I just as far as the gift bag this, I
just experienced this. I had a nine party for my
(26:42):
daughter and I actually did the gift back. And I'll
tell you why, because every party we've been invited to
there's been gift back. Yes, So now I don't want
to be that mom who doesn't give gift back.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
I know.
Speaker 9 (26:56):
It's there's so much there's so much pressure.
Speaker 21 (26:58):
Oh yeah, pressure.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Yeah. But in defense of.
Speaker 7 (27:01):
The distance, I have to tell I have to tell
you I stopped doing gift bags after a while. I
felt like if we were going to sky Zone and
we had this big party and we had lunch and
everything else, I was like, you know what, I'm not
doing the gift bag anymore.
Speaker 9 (27:13):
We're done.
Speaker 21 (27:14):
Well, did you did you experience this one of the
parents being like, oh thanks for all the sugar.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Oh okay, we got that. We got that this past
shortly time.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Yeah, I mean criticizing the gift bag.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
While the kids are running around in circles.
Speaker 9 (27:28):
Were getting them more candy.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Yeah, they're trying to get them out of the party
around candy.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Let's go, Kyle. Kyle is in Stoughton, Kyle, Hello, what's
your thought?
Speaker 22 (27:41):
Hey, good morning. My thought was a little along the
shaving line, but I was curious to hear your thoughts
on having to invite the entire class to a birthday
when you're doing sky Zone or something for elementary school
age kids.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Yes, we did. We felt like we had to. We
just did that with my son because once they get
first second grade, then they have their friends and neighborhood
who are not in the same class, and then you
have the class and we didn't know what to do.
We invited everybody. We booked a hall with unlimited amount
of guests.
Speaker 23 (28:08):
Pressure.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
So you invited the friends and the class classmates? They
were like forty kids.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Yeah, so yeah, Kyle, I feel.
Speaker 23 (28:17):
Yeah with the skuy Zone, not the she is placed
when they have twenty five kids and the birth in
the class and they wanted to invite friends outside the class.
You know, the social pressure now is you can't you
can't invite any kids from the class. You're not going
toavite the whole class.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Yeah, we had the same issue. That's why we had
it at a place where we could have unlimited kids,
because it would just be too expensive.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Well, it's either the whole class or nobody, because it
could be divisive.
Speaker 5 (28:38):
Actually, well my friend did is she has a kindergartener
and she's a little boy, so she only invited the
boys from the class.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
That way, you don't do the whole class, but you
all the little boys.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Yeah, And I think you're right, Sai.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
If you're going to someplace like sky Zone and one
of these big places, it's costing a lot of money
just for the facility. Then you're buying the food, you're
feeding the kids you're getting Yeah yeah, like five at all.
Speaker 5 (29:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (29:02):
I just you have to put limits as a parent.
That's what kids are.
Speaker 7 (29:06):
They're looking for you to set, you know, rules and limits.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Going back to the siblings gift thing, I have this
memory now a few years ago when my daughter turned one,
my son was probably five or six, and we had
the birthday party and when the gifts came, my son
was like, am I gonna get gifts and we said, well, no,
we'd explain it to him. No, it's when your birthday comes.
It was kind of a little bit upset, but that's
that was a learning for him. It's not your birth
(29:31):
Now he gets it.
Speaker 4 (29:32):
Yeah, let's go to Stephanie in Oxford. Okay, Stephanie, how
far away is Oxford?
Speaker 17 (29:40):
It's how about fifteen minutes from Worcester out like you know.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Beyond it's always west, Yeah.
Speaker 17 (29:48):
Always in the in the boonies for you, gus.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
So what do you think about this birthday gift trend?
Speaker 4 (29:55):
So?
Speaker 17 (29:55):
I agree with Kylie. We are dance parents of many, many,
many years. So we've through the trophy you know a
thing and my husband and I just sit there and
we love dance, but we hate the trophy piece. So yes,
we one hundred percent agree. But I will say this,
and Lisa, you are I've done this guyzore thing. They're
eighteen and fifteen, so we've done and Winnie, it's way
(30:17):
more than five hundred dollars.
Speaker 9 (30:18):
It's so excessive.
Speaker 17 (30:19):
Yeah, I can't imagine. And we did all the goodie bags.
We did and we had a huge yard, so we
actually started I love baking and cooking. So we used
it that way. We use our yard, we set up
obstacle courses. We did different stuff, and I would instead
of goodiebags, I'd actually rap cookies. I'd actually rap food
to take home. So yeah, that's great toys, I stuff.
So you can do different stuff. But what I don't
(30:42):
what I do agree with is and I grew up
with my parents. I am in my forties, so I'm
that child that we did not have this stuff. But
you you don't do the money. You don't open the
end bof you open the gifts. But when it comes
to money in the cards, it's almost because it's more
of a parent thing like oh, they got fifty dollars
from her or him, or you teach him not do
(31:05):
the money thing like nope, we'll save that for after.
Speaker 4 (31:08):
So that Yeah, all right, good call, and please give
our best to the town of Oxford, because I don't
think we're really get there. Let's go to Selene from Walpole.
Good morning, Selene, what are your thoughts?
Speaker 21 (31:21):
Hi?
Speaker 11 (31:21):
Good morning.
Speaker 18 (31:23):
I think siblings should not get guests on the other
siblings birthdays, but I think if anyone else was to
get a gift, it should be the mom for having
to get the baby out that day.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
Yeah, so it's a birthing gift. Five years ago today,
Happy Birthing Birthing Day.
Speaker 9 (31:42):
I used to call it a push present.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Yes,
